Gigabyte launches Xtreme Gaming XC700W chassis
Gigabyte today quite silently released and listed a new chassis at their website, the Gigabyte launches Xtreme Gaming XC700W. The chassis is an ATX full-tower that combines SECC steel, aluminium, and tempered glass.
Oh and of course some RGB LED bling as well. The chassis have Detachable Dust Filters to keep dust out of the case and prevent your system from suffocating with the detachable dust filters that are easy to clean with a quick, simple rinse. Built with 4mm tempered black glass side panel window, XC700W is an attractive, versatile chassis that can be a stunning showpiece for your PC parts. XC700W features aluminum shell that provides the solid protection, strengthens the structure and also completes a clean and sleek chassis frontal. The stiff tower stand with anti-vibration rubber feet designed to absorb vibrations from PC cases and help heat dissipation.

| M/B Type | mini-ITX/m-ATX/ATX |

| Dimensions | 593.5*240.5*546.6 mm |
| Net weight | 15.4 kg |

| 3.5" Driver Bays | 3 or 2.5" SSD x3 (with 3.5”to 2.5”frame) |

Personalize gaming style with virtually unlimited color illumination your options via Xtreme Engine. The best of all, the onboard light setting can be synchronized with other Xtreme Gaming Family. Download XTREME ENGINE. Dismissed the optical drive bay , as well as removable 3.5”drive bays, XC700W gives you plenty of room to run tubing and well as room for your pump and reservoir. At the top of the case, users can install up to either 360mm DIY liquid cooling radiator, or 3 of 120mm fans. The motherboard panel has a large cutout that makes it easy to install and upgrade CPU coolers. And you get plenty of holes for routing cables, as well as quite a bit of room at the back for stowing cables, too.

Why are PC component companies still labelling as if they have to sell them to 12 year olds? MSI, ASUS, GIGABYTE, they all do this, I do not get why...
Never ever would I want this huge "EXTREME GAMING" logo slapped on my case, it's just plain embarrassing. Maybe taste just differs, but I just want a clean case, made from quality materials, a sensible lay-out, attention to detail, and a nice intriguing look to it in my living room without screaming "YO DIZ IS THE 420 NO-SCOPE **** YO, SUPER POWER MILITARY GRADE BAZOOKA GAMING NO-GF-EVA 4 LIFE"
but that's just my 2ct..

What I can't stand is all the new cases lacking even one 5.25" drive bay. Want an optical drive, OC panel, fan controllers? Nope, sorry. The case companies really jumped the gun on writing those out of the design. Frankly I think there will *always* be a use for those bays. I frankly wouldn't buy a case with less than 3 (cause you know if you only get 2, something in the case will block at least one of em).

FAIL! If you are going to market a case with support for a massive reservoir and 360mm radiators, FFS you better include either A) A built-in 4 channel fan controller B) At least 1 5.25" drive bay so the user can add their own fan controller.
Here is an idea: Include both dual face plates (1 for sleekness, 1 for functionality), and a removable 5.25" cage as well as an extra 3x3" drive cage. Not everyone wants to go water cooling.

I think they missed out on a good opportunity to make something that didn't look so garish.
I don't mind large cage being omitted as they wouldn't apply to me. However, for other users this could be an issue. I would say make that light up side panel removable if they insist on keeping it there and add a drive cage or just omit that panel. No real need for that to be there. That front badge is also unnecessary if you want something minimal.
Other than that I must agree, the stand is quite nice.

Looks nice but I prefer cases with HDD activity LED on the front panel
